175 Times People Did Things For The First Time, And Had The Best Reactions
No matter how many times you repeat an experience, there's simply nothing like doing it for the very first time. Whether it be the first time you see snow, the first time you set eyes on the ocean, the first time you ride a rollercoaster, or the first time you experience virtual reality, the magic (or the confusion. Or the sheer terror) of those moments will stay with you forever.
Check out this list, compiled by Bored Panda, to see some people experiencing things for the very first time. The collection includes everything from newborn babies seeing their sisters, to 100-year-old ladies taking their first ride on a motorbike. Don't forget to vote for your favorite, and if you like this post then click here to see a bunch of animals also having some funny first-time experiences!

This series has many nice entries, many are really funny, as the title suggests. However, some rather decpit special moment, that are undoubtedly particular and in a sense also precious, but surely not funny. Therefore, I think this series should be split or recaptioned. "Most special" instead of "funniest" probably does the job. Sorry for being pedantic, but particularly the pictures of those who obviously come to joy after times of hardships are not justly captioned "funniest reaction"

Hey Hans, thank you for your comment. We changed it to "best".
